How to Draw a Hot Water Bottle · tinyhandscreate.com
Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch this oval. It only shows where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase it at the end.
Step 2: Body and neck
Draw a big rounded rectangle with soft curved corners at the bottom. At the top, curve the shoulders in toward the middle and draw two short straight lines going up to make a narrow neck. Leave the top of the neck open.
Step 3: The shoulder line
Draw a gentle, slightly curved line across the body, just below the shoulders. It starts at the left side and ends at the right side, dipping a little in the middle.
Step 4: The cap
Sit a small rounded rectangle on top of the neck for the cap. Then draw three short standing lines side by side inside it for the ridges.
Step 5: The big heart
Draw a heart in the middle of the body. Make two round bumps at the top that meet in a little dip, then slide down to a point at the bottom.
Step 6: Zigzag arrows
On each side of the heart, stack three small V shapes, one above the other. Try to make the left and right sets match.
Step 7: The wavy border
Draw one bumpy wavy line across the body below the heart, from the left side to the right side. Make each wave a small round hill, with little dips where the hills meet.
Step 8: The bottom stripes
Near the bottom, draw two long, slightly curved lines from one side of the bottle to the other. Leave a little space between them so they look like cozy stripes.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a hot water bottle
- Draw the body first and keep the sides straight and the bottom corners round. The rest of the drawing hangs on that shape.
- The wavy border is the trickiest part. Think of it as a row of tiny rainbows lined up side by side, and aim for similar sizes.
- For the arrows, draw one set, then match it on the other side. Lightly sketching a center line down the bottle helps keep the heart in the middle.
